'09 Dinan modified 650 detail

1 Clean WS6

Detailing Rottweiler
Hey all!!



Hope life is well for all of my dear friends in Autopia land!! I also hope that all my fellow pro's are fighting their way through this economic mess...stay strong my friends...this too like all things in life shall pass!! :waxing:



It was yet another rainy day today here in the ATL...imagine that! However, I had the chance to detail this drop dead gorgeous 650 yesterday. It belongs to a regular client of mine whose business I acquired last year. He owns a brace of stunning BMW's including an Alpina B7 shown in this thread... http://www.autopia.org/forum/pro-details-before-after/114506-07-bmw-alpina-b7-detail.html



He recently purchased this 650 and just finished having a round of Dinan mods performed on it. This beautiful Bimmer has the Dinan tune, cold air, throttle bodies, exhaust as well as front and rear strut braces on it. A perfect car with just enough done to enhance the driving experience. If you know me...then you know this car has the 1 Clean WS6 trifecta: silver paint; German engineering; and a big old V8!!



The car shows a scant 2800 miles on the odo and other than washing had not been touched since delivery.. Other than some very light marring it was in great shape. Below is a description of process and products used for this detail.



Enjoy,

Mike :cool:

man i have always loved the 6 series. They just are a just so sweet! It's a extra large coupe with some extra muscle under the hood =)



Nice job.



Hows business?
 
Awesome job Mike !!!! It's great to see your work again.



I was just in Atlanta and didn't even realize that is where you were from. If I would have known I would have reached out to have a cold one :)
 
:thx all for the very kind words!!!



Big Al thanks so much for the wishes! Little man is growing so quick...hard to believe he is already a year old.



Pat that stinks!!! I would have loved to have shared a brewski with you...next time for sure. Marietta, where I live, is about 30 minutes northwest of ATL.



Mike...I come in peace...buffer in hand!!



For all those that have asked business is still definitely off from years past but has improved markedly since the first quarter of '09. I honestly think that if my business had not been as established as it was when all this mess starting happening that it never would have survived.
 
Nice job, Mike. The paint looks really wet. :up



I hear ya on the rain, same deal here in Dallas. We only had two dry days the first half of the month, second half hasn't been that much better.
